Don't forget you get a repair tool to remove any scuffs off the AlloyGator if you damage them. PS I still think white ones suit a white car better, they make the wheels look even larger.

Personally i wanted them to blend in, but each to their own. I never received a repair tool with mine, i have emailed them.

You should have got a spare Gaytor for the fifth wheel plus the re-profiling tool. My fitter also gave me back the spare bits cut off the fitted parts. I have deliberately damaged these rubbing hard against concrete to play around with the tool and it works very well.

Hi Jon, having looked at car I see you have the chrome front finisher but below that looks like another chromed part ? Your own work or just a part I've not discovered yet.
By the way car looks fantastic

Hi Foxy, Thanks for the compliment. The additional chrome trim is some one inch thick plastic chrome from Halfords, a well prepared double sided tape and it looks as good as the other original Nissan part fitted above it. If you have a go have a hair dryer available to bend and flex the chrome into shape, and ensure you use cleaning alcohol to get the plastic really clean.
